THE MERCANTILE BOOM.

For many years there has been no
such indications for business transactions
as appear at the present time. Merchants
generally, are alive to the fact and IN the
business houses may be found tie true
indication of what is to come. In busl-
ness circles there is feeling that we are
already in the swift running current OF
prosperity and what should be done by
all is to assist in every way possible the
present activity. Let differences be
buried and each, with an eye single to
the glory of our beautiful city, endeavor
to add to our present brightness until
Salt Lake City becomes beacon-light IN
the West, to which wise men will come
with their capital and influence, building
up and strengthening our already per-
manent and rapidly growing interests.
The many valuable prospects will then
become properties which yield to the in
telligence of economical management,
from which we can pour the riches of the
earth into the lap of prosperity,
from which the citizens of Utah can SOW
the seeds of improvement, in agriculture,
mining, public building and comfortable
homes. That this is to be our lot in the
the near future one has but to scan the
horizon with the telescope of common
sense to be convinced. The great rail
road system OF the West points
to our city as the interior supply
station of the Great Basin, and with
an outlet, by the southern shore of our
inland sea, tapping as it goes westward,
rich mining districts as yet but little
known except to those hardy prospectors
who have carried their researches far
into the mountains, and are now awaiting
the advent of a road by which the
ore may reach a market. Having
disposed of prospect means a
search for more by the mountain
stream and far up in the hills where men
rarely go except in the pursuit of that
which means so much more wealth for
the world. If capital would develop as
rapidly as the brave prospector can find
the deposits of rich ore, there would
be an evening up of that great
industry. Utah owes much to her mines,
and is willing to increase the debt of
gratitude. Our merchants are doing
their share. 1t is some years since trade
in our mercantile houses showed the
activity that has developed this spring.
To those who doubt the assertion,
we can only say, make your
inquiries of the merchants themselves
and we are positive you must agree with
us. In another column we publish re-
port as cleaned from few of our leading
merchants, and will give more as our
space will permit.

THE case Of the lady polygamist of Salt
Lake City, has already reached the east,
and has caused commotion in the fe-
male dove cote of the right of suffrage
that bids fair to segregate the organiza-
ton. If the Withholding of the right of
female franchise has resulted thus
speedily in Utah in obtaining a woman
two husbands, what diabolical mischief
to themselves have the female saffragists
of the East been trying to work out all of
these years? Susan B. Anthony, it is
said, has especially been brought to an
abrupt realization that her life has been
a stupendous mistake.

OUR CATHOLICS.

The word "Our" can be applied by the
loyal people and a loyal journal of the
Territory in no fuller and wider sense to
any denomination in Utah than that of
the Catholic denomination. The Catholics
of Utah are identified with the loyalty of
the Territory. Steadfast, energetic and
true, they have ever borne themselves in
the front ranks of the battle against
Mormonism. They are "ours" in the fullest
sense of the word. Shoulder to.shoulder
we have stood in the stern and fierce
fight against superstition, fanaticism,
ignorance and retrogression, and the
face of the Catholic has ever been turned
toward the common foe, his arm
has ever been prompt to strike, and its
blows have been telling in effect In
these modern days, and in the great in
terests Of modern progress and civilization,
the Catholic and Protestant stand side
by side. Alike they bear aloft the ban
ner of right, justice and equality, and
sectarian differences are forgotten as they
press forward together to common and
glorious goal. When the great Beecher
died, he who was one OF the foremost
champions of the rights of man, who was
so prompt with an eloquent and ap-
preciative tribute to his memory, as that
beloved of his Catholic Pensioners, DIR.
McGlynn. In that tribute Dr. McGlynn
referred in words of fervor, hope and Joy
to the union of the Catholic and Protes-
tant religions in the cause of universal
humanity. Again, after the ceremo-
nies attendant on the creation
of eight new cardinals but a
day or two since in Rome, the
Father of the Catholic Church referred
at length to America and the work
of his children on American soil.
To-day no more brilliant or brighter sign
glitters on Times horizon than the union
of the Catholic and Protestant churches in
the great cause of human enlightenment.
Here, in Utah, we have borne the brunt
of the fight together, and when final vic
tory comes, the laurel chaplet will crown
alike the Catholic and the Protestant.
An attempt has been made by journal
of this city, partisan in its instincts, and
selfish in its policy, TO pervert to base
uses an editorial recently appearing in
these columns on the ignorance and
superstition of the dark ages. None but
he who is habitually afflicted with cast
in the eye could see in the light of the
present the darkness of the past. The
writer of the article thus distorted
is of Catholic affiliations himself. His
ideas are those of the age, and he is not
for the mental obliquity of a
which is as pronounced as
it is unfortunate.

A REPORT was on the streets yesterd ay
that the Eva of "Uncle Toms Cabin"
would die early in the evening, and that
it was possible that further improve
ment would be made by inducing Uncle
Tom himself to- shape his meek and
iowly course across the borderland at the
same time. But those budding hopes
were cruelty crushed. Though sufficiently
exasperating, the death of Eva was no
more opportune than it generally is, and
Uncle Tom did not make his exit by way
of the passage of shadows until, as usual,
the audience were about ready to accom-
pany him. 1t was decidedly a case of
false pretences.

of Utah have a fair showing on
the politics of the Territory. The intoler-
ance of the Republican organ here was
the cause of the establishment OF Demo
cratic paper. 1t was as lntolerant
on its politics, as are the Mormon leaders
in their so-called religion. If anything
if eyinced more rancorous hatred of
Democracy than Mormonism. 1t IN
vited Democratic Gentle opposition
and it got it. The DEMOCRAT
will pursue the course it has
outlined without fear or favor. 1t
has already proven that other than
Republican politics will be tolerated, and
that the jug-handle business will not
ALWAYS win in Utah.

THE witnesses on whose perjured testi-
mony the unfortunate Mrs. Surratt was
convicted and executed have led life of
conspiracy and fraud ever since. One Of
these perjured scoundrels, Benjamin
Spandauer, is now under arrest in New
York City for seeking to blast the repu-
tation of woman by false swearing.
Time has vindicated the memory of Mrs.
Surratt, and proved that her execution
was partisan assassination. History
will deal hardly with the Republican
fanaticism which scrupled not to judicial
ly murder an innocent woman under
cover OF the popular indignation over the
Staying of the martyred Lincoln.

A MORMON exchange felicitates itself
over the fight the Mormon press is max

"that the Mormon pen is doing great
things for Utah" Our Mormon ex-

things for Utah, and Judge Zane, Prose
cutting Attorney Dickson and the United
States Marshal are adopts in its use.

THE fact that four nickels were con-
tributed last week to the Grant monu-

Memorial Fund Association to the notice
of the public. 1t is supposed there is a

nickels were really intended as popular
contribution to the next Republican
campaign fund.

OPPOSITION papers which vainly try
in their narrow, partisan malignity to
maintain the sorry bugaboo, used so in
dustriously before the election, that
Democratic administration meant finan.
cial ruin, appeal to the large number OF
strikes in the Union in confirmation OF
their statements to this effect. Now the
strike is a modern invention in Ameri.
ca. 1t was not known nor heard OF
prior to that low ebb Of prosperity fol-
lowing the close of the war, the direct
result of Republican misrule. With the
more thorough organization OF labor
made necessary and brought about by
the partial legislation of the Republican
party, strikes have now become an in
herent part of our political economy.
The number of men out on strikes,
therefore, is not fair comparison.
M ost of these are out merely on some
D ONT of dispute between employer and
employee. The men might be at
work if they elected to work
on the terms of the employers.
Admitting the entire right of the strik.
ers generally, and claiming what no one
will deny, that in many cases they are
in the wrong, it will be seen that there
is at the worst wide divergence between
the cases of the men thus on strike to
force better terms from employers. and
that of men ten years ago who found the
factory gates locked and the mill-wheels
covered with spider webs, because the
proprietors could not run on any terms,
T he proper comparison is found in the
ge neral good condition of our industries,
the number of men actually employed
and the ratio between the cost of living
and the pay for labor. Compared on
this line the past two years will be found
to stand conspicuously ahead Of any sim.
liar period in very long time. The
general business of the country, and the
wages of the laborer are in far better
condition than they were before the
De mocratic President was called to pre-.
side over the political destinies of the
nation, and to let the people conduct
their business affairs to suit their own
notions without the constant interior.

The notion that "blood will tell" re-
ceived quite marked confirmation in the
episode wherein the outlaws OF Rowen
county, kentucky, met their fate on
Wednesday last. OF the participants in
that bloody tragedy, four of the gang
bore the name of Tolliver, the captain
being of that ilk, and his given name
was Craig. Tolliver, of course, is none
other than Taliefero, one of the most
distinguished names in the South. Craig
is another name Of great note in many
of the southern states. The man.
ner in which they have conducted them
selves in the many ARRAYS taking place
in Rowen county of late, has been
worthy of better cause than the one
in which they fells. One of the Tolli-
vers. boy of twelve years old, was the
only one who. escaped through the
double Gordon placed around the gang.
He got away with q severe gun shot
wound in his person. The illustration
to the principle that blood counts is
rather to be found in the splendid cour.
ice with which the men have borne them.
,eIyes in these terrible encounters, than
n the cause for which they met their
|eafh.

The Examiner publishes an interview
with person recently returned to San
F ran cisco from a visit to the oil fields of
Ventura county. From his statements
the following facts are CLEANED: The
present output is 1000 barrels a day.
In less than two years it will reach 5000
barrels day. The pipe lines to convey
the oil to tide water aggregate over
eighty miles in length, The exploiters
have made contracts to supply oil to
their customers for the next ten years.
None of the petroleum yet discovered
in California is of the best quality for
Illuminating purposes, with the excep.
ton of one twenty. barrel well near
Santa Cruz. which produces very SUI
perior green, light oil of the best quality
for Illuminating. The heavy, dark oil of
this coast is of course the best for
fuel, and it is to this use that most of
the present flow is put. Should the
above forecast prove correct, an output
of 5000 barrels of oil day in Ventura,
with the possibility of as much more in
Los Angeles will directly solve the ques-
ton of cheap fuel, and give Los Angeles
all the power she will need for half a
century to come for manufacturing in
dustries. The person interviewed by
the Examiner seems little mistaken as
to the character of the oil produced in
Los Angeles, The Newhall region is
supposed to turn out good deal of
green, light oil suitable for illumination.
